arry Me Camper has just launched
the Hard Lid slide-on camper. This
new model was designed for fitment
to single-cab and extra-cab tray-back utes,
complementing the soft-roof model that can fit
all ute sizes – even crew-cabs.The flagship Carry Me Camper Hard Lid
model has launched with very high equipment
levels and offers generous interior space. A
virtual Tardis, this camper packs down to
only 1.08 m above tray height when closed
and provides quick set-up and pack-away.A two-stage bi-fold roof offers better internal
headroom than conventional hinged-roof slide-
ons and excellent ventilation is provided by
large, midge-mesh windows on all sides.The camper sides are tapered from the base
width of 1.85 m, giving good mirror vision to
the rear, but with 1.59 width at the bed base.
The tailgate drops only to tray height, enabling
the camper to be mounted forward on a ute
tray that’s longer than the camper’s 2.12 m
footprint. The tailgate also has a retractable
ladder with steps that remain horizontal,Launched | 67
Compact when travelling, the new Hard Lid Camper sets up in minutes and has excellent internal space and
headroom.
